Greg Biffle

American racecar driver Gregory Biffle was born on Dec. 23, 19969, in Vancouver, Wash. He gained national attention when he raced in the Winter Heat Series in 1995-1996. He dominated the series championship, leading former ESPN announcer and NASCAR champion Benny Parsons to recommend Biffle to Jack Roush. In 1998, he won the Rookie of the Year award. The following year, he won nine times, a single-season Truck Series record that stands of 2009. In 2000, Biffle won the Truck Series title. He won his first Busch Series title and second NASCAR national championship in 2001. In 2005, he won six races, the most of any driver that year. In 2008, he became the first driver to win the first two Chase races in a season. Biffle and his wife created a foundation that creates awareness and serves as an advocate to improve the well-being of animals by engaging the power and passion of the motorsports industry. The foundation donates to local Humane Societies, no-kill animal shelters, spay and neuter clinics and the Animal Adoption League.
